| -2- As a matter of fact, I had a talk with Mr. Sutton of Farnborough and gave him some details concerning the useful conduct of tests with "leaded" petrol on magnesium alloy samples. I think these tests have been going on now for some time and Mr. Sutton should be able to give us some valuable data. I am enclosing herewith two short reports from our Laboratory in the States giving details of the tests we asked them to carry out to verify our experience in this matter. The latter report gives some interesting information. Please advise me if I can be of any further assistance to you. Kindest regards, Yours sincerely, (signed) F.{Mr Friese} R.{Sir Henry Royce} BANKS. | ||
